We missed celebrating a lot of things on IMBB for the past many months. From big things such as becoming the biggest makeup blog or crossing 10000 subscribers to small things such as Rati’s smile while doing her fashion looks or my enjoyable forays into photography. We somehow missed rejoicing over all of these. But more than that we missed celebrating sooooo many great friends that we made through this blog. But when 2012 woke us up from our slumber, we decided we would shatter away the silence with a bang. And what a BANG!

Contest Rules and Regulations
The contest would take place in two stages- The Audition and The Elimination Rounds.
Stage 1: The Audition
- Everyone is invited to send their entries for the audition. You can send entries till midnight, February 15th, 2012, to imbbteam [at] gmail.com.
- We would select good entries from the received entries and each of these entries would be posted as a separate blog post with facebook like and Twitter tweet buttons below it. Hence, a typical entry might look like the one below:
- If your entry is selected and posted in the audition, you have to get as many votes through social media buttons as possible.
- For Bloggers: If you are a blogger and your entry is posted in the audition, we shall be giving link to your blog in your entry post. Also, you are free to use the same look for your blog as well. Not only that, if you post about the contest on your blog with a valid link, we shall give you 50 additional votes. 🙂

Love Love Love this! Been a silent spectator at IMBB till date, but just had to come out today! Guess I will pull out my lovely dresses and drag Brother dearest to click some pictures 😀 This is just too tempting to let pass!! But could you please help a little bit? I am kinda confused as to whether we are looking at five pics of same look or different looks work? Please please please help the dunce…
Pallavi 3-5 pictures of the same look for every round. Let’s say you go to second round again 3-5 pictures of that look. The idea is to capture the details of the outfit along with the outfit as whole. 🙂
woo hoo thankyou!! M so excited I can’t wait!! My poor brother better be ready to click, board exams or no exams :toothygrin:
Wow this is soooo exciting… :woot: :woot: I have already shared this on FB…
I wish I had the guts to participate… :tremble: Anyhoo…best of luck to all the participants… may the best win :happydance:

Hey Rati, 🙂
can u please tell that when would be the entries start getting posted?
Hi Heena,
As soon as we receive an entry we would go through it. If that entry is selected for audition it would be posted immediately on IMBB for voting.
Therefore, it would be an advantage to send in your entry as soon as possible before the audition ends on 16th. That way, you would have longer time till 16th to get votes for yourself.
I got my answer! 🙂 Thnku.
this sounds like the awesum est news of the day.. of the mnth or yr maybe… :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot:
I dont have an account on twitter… this voting thing, i dont like :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ :-/ .. i wont b able to pick many votes … so me not into this :(( :(( :(( :(( :huh: :huh: :huh: 😐 😐 😐 😥 😥
Nids….please don’t hesitate, you can do well lady, take part, :yes: :yes: :yes: :puchhi: :puchhi:
Shame to shame….dont have twitter n voting thing freaks me… :waaa: :waaa: :(( :(( :((
I’m going to put my daughter here she is Neha Naz since she is 1 yr old, u can use my bank account details….
Age is not a criteria when it comes to fashion…. :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

:woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot:

“to small things such as Rati’s smile while doing her fashion looks” :preen:
How Romantic Sanjeevji! :stars:
:blush: :blush: :blush:
r u blushing?? :tongue: Rati saw u blushing? :toothygrin:
O:) O:) O:) O:) O:) O:) awwww All the best to all the chwweety pies O:) O:) O:) Rati and Sanjeev ji u people rock :yahoo:
Thank you all 🙂 Once again requesting you to share the contest through facebook, twitter or email as much as possible. 🙂
will share… definitely :))
suree….SAnjeevji……oppsy…i forgot to read how to enter the contest…I m so exicted…
oooh my oh my this is awesome! Drooling over the prizes….but 300 shares! Its truly for divas with huge fan following 😛
Soujanya, did you see that the cash prize is Rs. 50,000 and the total prizes come over Rs. one lakh, 300 likes is not a big score, is it O:) O:)
Yeah but it is a big deal for someone like me with small circle of friends. Nonetheless I will spread the word 🙂
:methinks: :methinks: :methinks: :methinks:
so in all 5 photographs hv to b sent..2 full size n 3 accessories,dress,etc…how many entries cn b sent
Hi Ritika, For audition only one entry is needed. Once you are selected in top 16 through audition, you’d have to send one entry every three days till you reach the top 5. 🙂
Woah! That’s like 12 looks for the winner!!!!! I better break my bank to at least get my wardrobe ready for this 😉
A girl in my office (who is very fashionable and carries a Gucci bag) says that “Sir, 30 looks to main araam se kar doongi” Aap to 12 se hi dar gaye 😛 Waise the thrust is on styling and NOT expensive stuff. Don’t break your bank. And even if you do, you’d be treating yourself only na, contest or no contest 🙂
Nah Nah Not scared, looking for a bahana to shop 😉 The challenge is getting my photographer, my brother to ditch his books before boards and click :tremble: Just one more thing though, are we looking at any particular theme or can I rock Indian looks too?
I think we will keep a round specially for Indian looks. For now, keep to western wear if possible. But if you think you can do a cool styling in Indian wear, go ahead and do it. 🙂
Hi Sanjeev,
What is the amount you have to pay for being a sponser?
Hi Sonia, please get in touch through email. 🙂
Sorry, Sanjeev, can you pls give me your email contact id, dont seem to have it.
Woweeeeee…… :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot: What an event. Will definitely share the link….Thos is exciting :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: :happydance: . Kudos Ratidoo and Sanjeevji and all IMBB team members :yahoo: :woot: :yahoo: :woot: :yahoo: :woot: ….Wish everyone loads of fun…. :dance: :dance: :dance:
Vineetha….please do share and thanks and please let us know if someone is interested :yahoo: :yahoo:
Joms…Me already shared the link……Will let you know if anyone is interested…..

I’d have no problem clicking and posing and even with sharing…..but,but,but……only if I were such a Fashionista’ :waaa: :waaa: to come up with something that can be called FASHION :((
All I can think of is anarkali suit or some jeans and a top !!
AND somebody needs to sponsor the amazing make overs for me if I am filtered thru the rounds 😉 😉
But doing the sharing definitely, though all the beauty-savvy ladies I know are already here!
So the first entry will go up on 16th, right?
Hi Geeta,
The first entry will go up during these days itself. Right now, all the would be participants have to send their fashion entries asap. The one we like would be put up immediately and the voting would start on them. This is the audition process which would end by 15th. 🙂

But I have 1 question- See, I have a budget so I don’t and can’t spend much on those branded accessories. So I hope in this contest you are not just looking the brands and expensive accessories/clothes
Hi Akshi, the emphasis is on styling and promotion of your entry through social media. Don’t worry about expensive brands just focus on styling and photos 🙂 And then pester your friends with “mere liye vote karo” :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
Woohoo!! Will get started on it from tomorrow itself!! :yahoo: :yahoo:
I know I won’t be getting too many votes but what’s the harm in participating?! :shying: :haanji:
And would force my sister to participate as well 😉
It’s gonna be fun!
infact i would love to see fashionable stuff that is not proced much. it gives hope for many who cant or dont want to spend that kinda money..one becomes more creative you know..:)

Fashion is a fusion of the best elements of human creativity – art, architecture, design and function. It can inspire, transform, and adorn anyone, and it lets one express oneself in the best way possible. Fashion can be beautiful and can let anyone show the world who they are with confidence and style.
Also, Jomol, what do I do now?? I’m already a fan on Facebook, and was already subscribed to the blog.

Like and share the contest with your friends at least Mishthi 🙂
woah nice :yes: ..i would love this..but bit shy for participating :secret2:
After much deliberation, here goes my entry: Fashion is a way of life. It’s how you feel you are, how you project yourself to the world. It is making the world more beautiful, exuding confidence and being everything that you are – and more.
Subscribed and like you guys already, please say I am in and will send the pictures soon (which I hope won’t disappoint you :shy: )
Yes you are in 🙂 Send in the pictures. 🙂
I love fashion because I live my life in it. Fashion pushes me out of my comfort zone, helps me express myself, lets my personality shine through :))
Manmeet, please do send in your pictures :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love: :love:
Oh my pink toes! :shocked: I’m missing from IMBB for a while,and a world of changes goes on. :stars: :stars:
I wish I was eligible for the contest…no bank account only. 😐
….I guess I’ll leave my outfit flaunting for another time then. :silly: :silly:
I’ll just sit and watch for now.Though I’m not sure if I’ll be able to actively participate in all the things going on, I’ll hop on over to FB and get to clicking some of those buttons. 😀 😀 😀
Good luck to everyone participating! I hope to see many amazing things. :shying: It’ll be my five minute relief during my exams. 😛 …Goodbye,decent internet access. 😥
Is it possible that you could humour me and let me try my hand at this? Just the audition. :dumb: :dumb:
Yes ofcourse 🙂 But camera photos only please. No cell phone pics 😐
Please do Like and Tweet the contest…get this flowing to all the ladies in your world 🙂
Yaaaaayyyy! Thank you so much! Now to get clicking! :preen: :preen:
And here is my entry for the audition:
Fashion is the way I show people my personality. I can be what I want in the clothes I wear and show it off with pride. My interest in fashion is quite a big part of my identity among my friends and family. Even people who have no idea who I am can get some idea of what sort of a person I am. It’s something that make me feel like I just drank a carbonated drink. (bubbly and energising) :shying:
And now for my favourite fashion related quote:
“your clothes should be tight enough to show you’re a woman but loose enough to show you’re a lady.”
-Marilyn Monroe.
This sounds very exciting and fun. Thanks for organizing this. :clap: :clap: :jiggy1:
Hiii..
I wanted to participate and also planned n prepared abt how I will go abt the looks and was waiting for my xam timetable ..was xpecting the exam to be in mid May.. but d time table is out n they are due in April :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: 😥 😥 😥 😥 .. I worked out the dates of the elimination rounds according to the information given in the post according to what I understand it will go on till 7 th May.. Could you please let me know when exactly will the contest reach it’s last leg.. I mean the date..
I was so excited bt now I am really feeling very low and sad.. :-/ :-/
Dipti…..please do participate…..I am sure exams and this contest will both go superb for you :yahoo: :yahoo:
Jomol/Rati, I finished clicking one outfit, but as I’m 5’10” tall :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin: , to get a full shot my bf had to stand a bit far but the pic captures the entire outfit, is that k?
Its okay Nandini….you can click a near shot of you and a far shot as well and send in both. In fact, you can send as many clicks you want….what say, and send in soon and my God, you are 5 feet 10 inches, :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho: :jaiho:
Awesome 🙂 the reason it will be a slightly far shot is he tried to get me in one frame entirely or else wither my head or my shoes had to get cut off, plus was wearing heels for the shoot sooo 😛 😛 😛 and yes, I come from a tall family 😀 😀
Wow….I have more reasons to be jealous of you :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: please do send in pics soon Nandini….its all okay, send one near shot one also :yahoo: :yahoo:
Hahaha 😀 it can be annoying cuz I NEVER get shoes my size :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: I’m sending pics of two outfits so can one outfit have a far one and one a near one?
I know its a pain buying shoes in big sizes Nandini :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: and most times u never find it in design u like!!!! :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank:
I knowww!!! I HATE that 🙁 or the ones on Sale are never in my size 😛 😛 I’m a European size 42 :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa: :waaa:

sent sent :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
I’ve sent my entry!!! :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
So about fashion – It completes me… Its because of fashion and styling that I can stare at myself for hours in front of the mirror… It makes me more confident… Just as they say, “Raymonds… the complete man”, I’d say – “Fashion…, and we have a complete woman!!!”…. :toothygrin: :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
I have sent my entry in the evening… 🙂 🙂
what I love the most about fashion is that it is an art without boundaries and stated rules.. it is experimenting with different textures, colors, patterns and is a composition just like dance music or painting .. it is a form of non verbal expression and a medium of self expression..It boosts one’s confidence…
wohoooo… I am so excited… :yahoo: :yahoo: :woot: :woot:
Am finally ready with my entries! Will be sending them tonight.
hey!!
can anyone tell me please whether the contest is still open??
thanks!!
Fashion to me is my creative outlet. Expressing my style and my personality.
I sent my entry too 🙂 forgot to mention that.
Heyy Guys,
I am Shruti and I have been a silent spectator of your blog for more than a year now. I could not dare to participate in the contest in first GO but now have gathered courage and shedding my shyness I would like to participate in it now. I just realised that I still have a chance to enter in it via wild card entry. Below is my opinion about fashion as for Step-1
I love fashion because it is like an extension of my personality and what kind of mood I’m in
Fashion gives a certain amount of freedom to people and allows them to be who they want to be.
I would be sending my pictures by today evening as per the rules
Keeping fingers crossed to get it through 🙂
Best,
Shruti
Hi
I am confused about the wildcard entry. can i still send in my entry?
Neetika
Being a budding fashion designer… i love everything about fashion be it a haute couture gown to a simple flowy dress. Be it sky high pair of heels or funky flats. Be it fashionable swarvoski earrings or geeky glares. Fashion is all about carrying yourself with elan in whatever you’re comfortable with . 🙂 I lOve FaShIon.
Hey….
Can I apply now or is it too late? I just got to know about this contest 🙁
